Two skaters are studying collisions on an ice-covered (frictionlesslake). Skater 1 (m1=85 kg.) is initially travelling with a speed of5.0 m/s, and skate 2 (m2=120 kg.) is initially at rest. Skater 1then "collides" with skater 2, and they lock arms and travel awaytogether.
a) Express the conservation condition for your system.
b) Does your system unergo an elastic or an inelasticcondition?
c) Solve for the final velocity of the two skaters?
